This is the man this whole community needed

Thank you for talking in intervals instead of just fret numbers. I had a teacher that used to say if you just memorize the fret numbers you use then you'll know the lick in that key, but if you learn the intervals you'll learn the lick in any key.

It's strange that I feel like no one ever approached this contents in such an easy and clear way. This is what we need. You make me a happy kid, thanks a lot for sharing this lessons for free, I truly believe that more and more people will enjoy

Maaaan these lesson vids are killer, thanks for doing these.

You're a great teacher Andy. I used to work with your dad at Mayland Community College, and I know he was a great instructor. Not only have you developed a phenomenal playing style, you (I'd wager) have inherited some of Jack's awesomeness for conveying your knowledge as well. Very cool to follow you on YT!

I see Andy Wood news, I click immediately! 😉👍

I like that you talk in scale degrees instead of which frets you're playing.

Holy crap , i came to this video because he said this is what made him want to play guitar the first time he heard this solo. I had to hear it and I'm blown away. Wow.

I'm paused like only 9 minutes in and tying in what Andy's teaching into some of the licks that I've been using forever and new worlds are opening up. What an absolute inspiration you are, Andy!

I was stuck for yrs in my soloing. This is exactly what unlocked everything. Guys who've been waiting for decades for that magic moment to happen know how impossible it is to thank you enough! 🙏🙏🙏. The sun is shining again! Thank you!

Best lesson of this style in the history of KZfaq... bravo!!!!

Instantly and immediately some of the best guitar instruction on the interwebs! Man keep these coming!!!

Helll ya I'm stoked about this series this is awesome! I love what Eric Gales does with this style as well that dude is nuts. Thank you for the thoughtful explanations going through these examples - really helps!! Keep em coming

What a great lesson. Thank you Andy!

So much talent and taking time to share some with other musicians is admirable to say the least sir, thank you very much!

What a great and fresh approach to teaching this is. This helps me greatly! Thank you and please keep them coming! Let's go deeeep into this theory stuff!

Bruh! That's an action packed lesson. It's harder than you think to find a great teacher. But your stuff is always accessible. And I used to teach similarly..."don't try to cop the exact licks, instead cop the VIBE, and the licks will fall into place.."

Another great lesson! Thanks Andy!

Great stuff and loving that you kicked off these great lessons! Love to see more pentatonic and scale runs while playing over the chord shapes in these scenarios for improv.

Thanks for doing this Andy. This is great and much appreciated. Outstanding lesson!!

So excited for the Woodshed series! I would love to hear your approach on improvising. Your live rendition of Midnight Train To Georgia absolutely blew me away and to get a glimpse of that would be absolutely amazing. Cheers!

Man, thanks so much for sharing all of these videos. Your breakdown of Eric and Joe’s phrasing is freakin awesome. Love your channel 👌🏼🔥

I’m so freakin stoked you’re doing videos Andy - ur one of my favorite players . Loved the lesson, I say do more vids on people that inspired you because this one is absolute Gold. subbed

Just watched a couple of your lessons and they are incredible. I hope to see many more lessons from you. Thank you so much for sharing!

Great lesson. Hearing your thought process is what I find most helpful.

Was introduced to you via Greg Koch's interview, and was really impressed. These videos are some of the best on the web already. You are a good teacher that presents ideas and concepts clearly. Very cool, indeed!

This is really useful, really helpful stuff. Thank Andy!

This is gold! It's like having personal lessons with one of my favorite guitarists. Thanks, Andy!

Nice video! I learned something new with that backstep to the root move. I've been playing almost 55 years and I just wouldn't normally think to do that, until today. thank you!

Best lesson ever, Andy! Love the use of scale degrees and intervals to describe what you’re playing rather than fret numbers. You explain things so clearly and logically and it’s also so melodic and musical - thanks for this and please keep it going!

great lesson Andy....& nailed the Tone too !! great stuff !!

Great lesson Andy !Love and Respect.

You show the most useful things! I am so happy that you started doing these lessons, they are very helpful (even though I don’t have all of the theory nailed down). Well done!

Very cool, looking forward to jamming with this preset too!

Love it just spent my entire getting all these ideas under my fingers and ingrained in my mind would love a video about your song shred neck just the all around styles you use in song thanks again Andy your fans appreciate taking time for this

Great lesson. Thank you! I've been trying to understand this "code" for a long time. Very helpful.

Andy, this is a brillant lesson ! Thank you so much.

Your teaching style is ridiculously great. Great to get concepts and adapt that to how it works best for you. Definitely showing us all how to fish. Following you now.

"Traverse" the fretboard? Excellent lesson, so glad you're doing these. I will watch every single one.

Great stuff and very helpful to get insight to how you think about the fretboard. Thanks, Andy

Amazing lesson, Andy! Please please please keep 'em coming. Fantastic teaching style, sir

Without a doubt the best EJ analysis I’ve ever seen. New subscriber here! The interval idea is supreme, I’m an old blocking guy stuck on patterns, this is a revelation. Thank you so much for opening my eyes. Keep em coming.

So happy you are doing lessons. Really cool that you're talking conceptual stuff beyond just licks.

What a lesson! The veil has been lifted!

This is pure GOLD. Thank you so much. I am beginning to understand it. Keep up the good work. God bless. I really enjoyed your conversation I watched with you and Greg Koch.

Awesome lesson Andy!!!!!! Thanks a heap man 🤘

Fantastic lesson! Everything explained in such a concise and easy to understand way. Very much appreciated.

Wish I had seen this 15 years ago. Love the way you break things down and explain. Thanks.

Thought provoking lesson Andy.Great job s'plainin man.And great playing as usual

Knocking it out of the park Andy. Thank you for these ideas!

Andy, this lesson was fantastic. Very easy to follow and your energy is awesome. Looking forward to future lessons!

What an insightful lesson! This is the first time I’ve seen someone demonstrate the specifics of playing triads over changes. And what a lovely guy. It’s not wonder you and Ben make such great music together. Thanks Andy, this is really helpful.

That was a great lesson and great fun. Thanks!

Andy, great stuff! Keep it up with theory and technique. Love it!

Excellent lesson! Thank You

Great display of your playing thanks

You are a natural teacher. Please keep up the great work!!!

Love your style bro, amazing lesson for sure !!

Great stuff Andy! I like the approach of thinking of the harmony and not the just fret numbers, it gives so much more context to what you are hearing.

Wow ... fantastic teaching and explanations, Andy. Thanks for doing this!

Andy Wood the miracle man thank you Andy for all the info you pass on to all of us !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I’m a huge fan of EJ and Joe and this is by far the best instruction of the style I’ve come across. Thank you Sir!

Such a great way to approach a topic like this. Seriously, this is the best lesson I’ve seen in the EJ and Joe Bonamassa style of odd note groupings. Maybe the hexatonic subject is up to date ?? This extra flavor is extremely important. Just adding to your pentatonic the key note to add a specific scale vibe. Not many lessons out there on the subject. thanks for your great efforts Andy !

Andy, I love your playing and your teaching style. I’d be interested in knowing your approach when it comes to transcribing ideas from other instruments. Thanks for sharing all of your knowledge, and have a great day!

Been aware of your playing for years Andy but I've only just got to your KZfaq channel. What an amazing and inspiring resource. Thanks & all the best from Western Australia.

Andy this is exactly what has been missing in my game. Thank you so much for this.

Such an awesome video Andy! Thanks for sharing some of your knowledge :)

Thank you for this lesson! I would love to see you go over how you compose/write your songs, and explain your through processes behind it 🤘

You're the man, Andy. Great video that I'll be referring to as I woodshed this for the next 10 years.

Great lesson breaking things down! You’re a fantastic player and a great teacher!

Many thanks Andy, you managed to keep my attention all the way through and make the lesson easy to follow. That linear clue instead of a box makes so much sense. Must practice now. All the best man. 🎼

I'm only as far as Episode 2 but I've already taken so much useful knowledge from your videos. Looking forward to working through the rest of them. It's really helpful the way you are talking in intervals instead of fret numbers. Cheers man!

Excellent lesson on a difficult style to emulate properly. Muchas gracias, cheers.

I really found your tips helpful, and practical! Thanks for doing this video!

Well I’m glad you’re not playing video games. What an awesome lesson! I appreciate how you have managed to capture a snippet of advice from a life time of guitar playing, and then put it in a short 20 minute video that pretty much anyone can understand. I’ve always struggled with knowing the best way to make the pentatonic lines “smooth”. That’s the first lesson that makes sense to me. Thanks. But enough talk, time for me to get practising! Keep up the great work Andy!

Just an absolutely exceptional lesson. You are very precise and exacting with how you go about explaining concepts in a very fundamental and understandable manner. You've really helped my playing. Thank you.

Been teaching and playing 50 some years, all your lessons are excellent and this one is the best!

I don’t know why I’ve never stumbled upon your channel until now. But I have and still am binge watching all your videos. The more I watch the more pissed off I get at myself for not diving in deep years ago. I have always been a very good guitar player but I can’t even hold a flame next to you dude. I am mostly self taught and never had support to progress when I was young but I grew up with a bunch of musicians older than me that took me and a few others my age under their wings and showed us the way. So I have progressed slowly through three marriages, three daughters and eight years in the Air Force and everything else life has thrown in my path...anyway enough of my useless ranting. Thank you, great lessons, very overwhelming but awesome and humbling... 🎸🤓🎸🇺🇸☮️🙏

Best ever lesson for this! Thanks Andy!

I'm digging this. I have always wanted to learn some of Joe's and Eric's phrasings. I hear Joe using Eric's phrasings a lot in his playing. Great stuff. I was just in Gatlinburg through January 7th-11th. Awesome place.

Thank you Andy, excellent lesson, please keep this going!

just came across this!! so helpful in so many ways. would love to see you take it another level or two and really open this up!! love your vibes brother, and thanks again!!

Dude, this is pure gold!!!

absolutely killer lesson! gonna go through this all week or prbably longer:-) Thank so much for this upload and demystifying these concepts for us mere mortals!

Wow, the musicality of this lesson is phenomenal. I really like how you blend useable melodic phrasing with technique. Anything relating to connecting the whole fretboard horizontally with meaningful repeating phrases like this video would be great. I’m learning a lot from Ben Eller and this expands nicely on his lessons. Thanks

very inspiring!!keep up the great stuff !! love it

This is awesome! A great topic would be interesting chords to play over.

Very good lesson lots of good ideas, and great playing by Andy.

A lot of great content in here Andy! Love it!

Fantastic lesson. Thanks Andy for sharing your talent with us. Besides being a GREAT player, your are an excellent teacher! 👍👍

40+ years of playing and I am still learning too. Enjoy this journey Andy!!

Awsome! This is the information I've been looking for. Thanks so much

Thanks Andy, glad you're doing this.

You make it seem so obvious that I"m screaming 'I know this, so why didn't I know this?!' Thank you so much for repackaging the old pentatonic in these cascading, repeatable forms. Sounds amazing and is very useful.

That tone just rocks. Thanks Andy.

Awesome video... and you're a great teacher and a great player

Thanks Andy really enjoyed this lesson

THX a lot, Andy! Great teaching - very understandable and helpful! You're a great player.

first time I just watched. this time i played thru the stuff. Fantastic!! very helpful. Thanks man.
